THE Baltimore american pub
fishes letter of special correspondents
from all the counties in the State
on the political situation. These
letters lead to promiscuous conclu-
sions. The candidates are multitu-
dious in number, and this causes q
mixed condition of affairs. The
most astute politician cannot even
make a guess as to the result in the
nominating conventions.

the age

. THIs has been a bad year for
municipal corruptionists. Three
New York aldermen are in the pen
itentiary, and the king of bride Civ
ers is awaiting sentence in Jail. In
Cincinnati corrupt election judges
are in Jail. In st. Louis number
of corrupt election officers are in
prison and others awaiting trial.
The Chicago boodlers are finding
themselves in the penitentiary as
fast as the courts can dispose of
their cases. In Baltimore ten
Judges and clerks of election are in
prison for ballot box stufling, and
others are on the anxious bench.
These are healthy signs and we
trust the good work may go on un-
til confidence is restored in the
purity of the ballot box.

Mr.. BLAIEE's trip abroad was
well-timed. He is now out of
harms way. There are doubtless
a good many ambitious Republicans
who wish he had sailed for the gol-
den shore whence no traveller ever
returns. There are hundreds of Re-
publicans voters who would be cas-
Ter in their minds if they knew that
the man from Maine would forget
to come back to America until the
votes for President had been count
ed next year. But Blaine is not
en- route for Oblivion, and he will
return. He has gone away in or
der that he may come back. Po-
litjcally speaking he can better be
away than at home during the next
few months. Until next winter
will be the most critical period in
the business in, which he Is now en-
gagged. If he we're at home he could
not keep himself prominently be-
fore the people without running the
risk of making himself offensive
with too much solicitation; and yet.
he must not let the people forget
him or forget chat he is posing as a
Presidential candidate. Mr.. Blaine
is cunning, and nobody understands
the art of pulling the political wires
better than he. What he doesn't
know in the strategy of politics no
body need try to teach him. Abroad
he will be far more conspicuous
than he could possibly be at home;
he will be continually before the
people of tive continents, and if he
can find the convenient opportunity
to utter a speech or two on the other
side of the Atlantic, you may rest
assured he will improve it, and he
will let fly Americanisms which
will be applauded and discussed on
this side. The traveller can create
more or less of sensation when he
returns, just as his going excites at
tention.
This foreign trip has been very
cleverly arranged in the interest of
Mr.. Blaine's candidacy, and it will
succeed admirably if the Plumed
Knight shall manage and time his
homecoming with the skill display
ed in his going. If he shall play
his cards we'll while abroad, and re-
turn next fall he will be able to
keep the enthusiasm until the selec.
ton of the convention one year
hence: and when that convention
shall be held no man in the Repub-
lican party can "down" him. SEN
ator Sherman, Senator Allison and
the Others who have made their
aspirations less conspicuous, may
we'll turn green with envy as they
note the clever work Of the man
who has made up his mind that he
win be elected President, Or that
the Democrats shall continue in
the administration of the govern
ment.

The Only Way 10 Conquer Dys-
p~psia.

1t is perfectly prepOsterous to introduce
pepsin and other artificial solvents int"
the stomach, in the expectation that they
will assist digestion by acting on the
food itself. They will not. Nor is it pos
sible thus to overcome dyspepsia. The
only way to conquer that disorder, and
prevent the numerous diseases and dis
abilities which it surely provokes, is to
renew the activity of gastric action by
strengthening the stomach. Hostetters

inveterate forms of indigestion by restor.

A New Meat Firm.

The firms of Fultz & Dunford and
Grautham g. Lewis, have each been dis
solved by mutual consent, and the firm OF
Fultz & Lewis, takes the place of both
the Others, Messrs. Dunford and Grant
ham both retiring from the market bnsl-
ness altogether. Messrs. Fultz IL Lewis
are both experienced butchers and popu-
lar men, and we hope the new firm thus
constituted will be literally patronlzed.
There is no necessity for but one good
meat market in Brookhaven, and II our
neonle will conline all their patronage TO
Messrs Fultz s. Lewis they will fully
